Volunteer with the Lions Gate Hospital - Youth Advisory Committee

Hey everyone!

The Lions Gate Hospital Foundation is looking for North Shore youth (16 – 22) volunteers for a Youth Advisory Committee.

This could be an excellent opportunity for a young person to develop fundraising/event/outreach/communications/marketing skills – as well as making some really great contacts in the healthcare, fundraising, and business industries.

Responsibilities are as follows:

·

                     Identify opportunities to involve North Shore youth with the Foundation

·

                     Promote the Foundation’s vision within the North Shore community, serve as an ambassador

·

                     Develop fundraising ideas for current initiatives/campaigns

·

                     Recommend appropriate communications vehicles to target the North Shore, particularly within schools

·

                     Assist with special events where appropriate

This could really pay off for anyone looking to get into a healthcare field, or is interested in fundraising or even in the business world.
